*In recent years, the growth of e-Commerce has been enormous. In 2017 alone, the growth of sales in e-Commerce amounted to 23.2 percent, which made it possible to achieve the total volume of trade in this area of 2.3 trillion dollars. Of this amount, approximately 58.9 per cent is for the purchase of goods through mobile devices. According to the study of experts, an increasing number of ordinary consumers and Housewives are ready to abandon the purchase of goods of favorite brands in favor of the purchase of other products using mobile devices. Thus, according to preliminary data, the volume of mobile e-Commerce may increase to 3.5 trillion dollars.*
**At the moment, e-Commerce is far from perfect and is experiencing some difficulties in such areas as:**
* *attracting new customers and retaining regular customers;*
* *the difficulty of defining a program for profitable long-term growth;*
* *lack of competent partners;*
* *a small selection of quality software.*
***To solve all the above problems, as well as to improve the sphere of e-Commerce will allow a new platform called IOU.***

# Principle of operation
The IOU marketplace is a combination of e-Commerce, Blockchain technology, and virtual currencies. Through the use of a distributed Ledger, the IOU platform provides complete transparency of financial transactions, honesty of loyalty program terms, high transaction speed, and the ability to track products and products. All this allows not only to attract the attention of new customers, but also to ensure the strengthening of trusting relationships with regular customers. In addition, the Blockchain technology allows to exclude intermediaries between the seller and the buyer, thereby providing the lowest cost and favorable conditions.
Through the use of cryptocurrencies, users can be confident in every transaction. Moreover, they will be able to exchange assets among themselves within the framework of the platform. Thus, by purchasing a product at a favorable price, in a limited offer, the client can sell it on the exchange at a higher price.
